Do you want to make a difference in someone else's daily life? We are now looking for an engaged and confident personal assistant who wants to become an important part of our client's life and contribute to a meaningful, secure, and functional everyday life.
The position starts during the summer, with good opportunities for continued employment for the right person.
About you
We are looking for you who have experience in care and support, preferably as a personal assistant. You are confident in yourself and in your professional role, have good judgment, and can handle different situations with calmness and responsibility.
To thrive in the role, you are:
- Responsible and reliable
- Perceptive and empathetic
- Flexible and solution-oriented
- Respectful of the client's integrity and self-determination
- Comfortable working both independently and in collaboration with colleagues
Job responsibilities
The client uses a wheelchair and needs support in various daily tasks. Your duties include, among other things:
- Personal care and hygiene
- Mobility and transfers
- Support with daily activities and walks
- Household chores
- Adapting support based on the client's individual needs and wishes
We are looking for you who are perceptive, proactive, and creative in finding solutions that strengthen the client's independence and quality of life.
Work environment and mobility
To ensure a safe and secure work environment, most transfers and hygiene moments take place together with another assistant. Therefore, you often work in close collaboration with colleagues and are expected to communicate and cooperate in a professional manner to provide the client with secure and respectful support.
Night work
You will support the client with needs that may arise during the night. This sometimes involves help with transfers, personal hygiene, CPAP, and other basic needs. The shifts consist partly of active working time and partly of waiting time.
There may also be opportunities for extra shifts during the day, evening, and night.
About the position
Employment level: Part-time
Schedule:
Day shift: 07:45–16:30
Evening shift: 16:30–20:45
Night shift: 22:00–08:30 (Waiting time between 23:00–04:45 during night shifts)
Important information
Due to allergies in the household, you must be a non-smoker and refrain from using perfume and other strong scents during working hours.
A background check is conducted on all candidates who proceed in the recruitment process.
Selection and interviews are conducted continuously, which means the position may be filled before the application deadline. We therefore recommend that you submit your application as soon as possible.
We look forward to receiving your application!
